Software training catalogue SOFTWARE 43 SIMULATION-DRIVEN SHAPE OPTIMIZATION WITH SESAM CAESES INTRODUCTORY Course code: SE-31 Duration: 2 days Good knowledge of CAE simulation is preferred as well as basic knowledge of CAD modelling. No previous experience using Sesam CAESES is required. The course gives you an introductory overview of the major functions and features found within Sesam CAESES. You will learn how to create parametric models which are ready to be used in the automation process. A general introduction to the software connector will be given in order to provide guidelines on how to couple Sesam CAESES with your simulation software of choice. Optimization algorithms, DoE, and post-processing will also be touched upon. Learn the basic principles of using Sesam CAESES for automated shape optimization studies. Typical industrial applications include reducing the resistance of your hull-form, maximizing the efficiency of your pump, lowering the pressure losses through your duct or manifold, or improving the sea-keeping behavior of your offshore platform. CAE engineers who have a solid background in simulation (e.g. CFD, FEA, seakeeping) and are using these codes to drive their mechanical or hydrodynamic designs.
44 SOFTWARE Software training catalogue SIMULATION-DRIVEN SHAPE OPTIMIZATION WITH SESAM CAESES ADVANCED Course code: SE-32 Duration: 3 5 days Good knowledge of CAE simulation is preferred as well as basic knowledge of CAD modelling. Some experience using Sesam CAESES is required, and it is preferred that you have completed the introductory course SE-31 or that you have gone through the first two sections of tutorials.
